    One thing I have noticed is how quickly the new types of weaponry and equipment is introduced.
    The Y-20 in the PLA Airforce numbered a handful a few years ago, now I've seen figures of 80+, the same goes for the J-20, a few dozen just a few years ago, now between 200-250.
    Not just these 2 particular aircraft, but ships, armoured vehicles, helicopters, etc are all being issued in significant numbers in a short period of time.

    Yours is the only channel that has a meaningful coverage of elements of PLA, such as Air Force airborne corps, or Ground Force aviation capabilities, I used to look for this information desperately for long and until now did not find it anywhere else other than in your channel

    Hi, can you provide some of the sources you used to put this together? I’d love to dig into those. I’m really looking to see how you were able to deduce that a mech infantry company has 22 ZBD03s. Awesome vid!

      Thanks. Most of the sources are from the Chinese internet. As for that possible structure, that is based on a possible 9 strong infantry section, which would need 2 vehicles to transport it.

      That’s because they have been preparing for war for the past decade and more, we haven’t. The West will always try the diplomatic way first, as we have seen in previous world wars. We draw a line in the sand, and once that line is crossed, the West normally retaliates. China also has the capital and home industry to support such a large, well equiped military, we don’t. Australia wastes billions of dollars a year on welfare payments, the stupid amount of politicians we have and the indigenous community. That money could be much better spent on local industry that supports our defence force. But once again we are just playing catch up and running late to a bus that left a long time ago.

    • @MrCastodian

      Have they?
      Or have they prepared for peace and defence? China have not been in wars since 1979, Australia have been in several wars, Gulf War, Afghanistan, Iraq invasion, Syrian civil war and Libya to if I remember correct, and the fact that Australia spend more on their military of their gdp then China would indicate that it’s Australia that prepare for war…
      And will west always try diplomacy?
      If that is the case, why do they bomb so many, why do what you do??
      And sure, you pay people’s welfare, on the other hand, so do China, but way way more.

      The VDV are an independent service, not part of the Army. The PLA airborne troops are part of the Air Force, and the U.S. airborne are part of the Army. Technically, the USMC is part of the Navy.

    Why airborne force not use Self-Propelled Howitzer?

    • @Strategy_Analysis
      @Strategy_Analysis  Рік тому +1

      Basically because of the weight. Airborne forces need to be reasonably light, and if being parachuted into combat, don't want large vehicles taking up space in the plane.

    • @Jfiejdjdjb
      @Jfiejdjdjb Рік тому

      It’s already hard enough to jump out of planes with all the equipment and some light armoires vehicles… imagine lugging a howitzer with them 💀💀💀. Plus paratroopers are built to be stealthy and fast, typically avoiding unnecessary gunfights and going straight to complete their mission

      PH-63 is the AK of MLRSs, it is cheap, easy to use, and available in huge quantities thanks to it being widely exported/reverse-engineered so the weapon appearing in Hamas hands is understandable.

    WHAT'S YOUR OPINION ABOUT,china using there air born forces in the arch of instability or new Guinea/Solomon islands to our north,or your opinion on Australia establishing a national guard or marine corps independent from adf structure or should we in Australia make all young men an women do national service straight out of high school give them one year off out of high school then present to a recruitment centre an do 2 years training then 4 to 6 years contract service in a national guard or marine corps giving Australia a large trained man power pool of reserves to defend the north

      China has seen how America used Australia as a logistics hub for an armed push north through new Guinea and solomons in ww2
      so a pre emptive strike on Australia cant be ruled out,if America intervenes in Taiwan, China is trying to build bases from Timor to new Guinea to the Solomon islands
